• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. The small town of Santa Isabel, found at approximately 34 km along BR 262 from the place where that road begins, is located near but not directly within the river valley of Rio Jucu Braço Norte. Assuming that this collection was made within the actual river valley (as seems to be explicit in the directions), georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the river valley at the point where the river comes closest to the town of Santa Isabel, in Mun. Domingos Martins, Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Santa Isabel, and using Google Maps - Terrain View, located the valley of the Rio Jucu Braço Norte, and found the place where the river comes closest to the town (-20.361224, -40.620776). Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the approximate geographic center of the river valley (boundaries defined using the points of highest elevation found on each side of the river; North: -20.337323, -40.624896, and South: -20.376874, -40.624638) at this position along the river. Used Google Maps - Measure Distance tool to estimate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates at the center of the river valley to the further of the two high-elevation points used to define the extent of the valley at this position (-20.337323, -40.624896). Input linear extent (2455.0 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined Area).
